Variable Idle Speed 200 1990

Recently replaced the air tube between air mass and throttle stuff, as the old one fit loosely and had a split.

Car runs great, but at times the idle has a mind of its own (drops to 450 and then the engine dies). Seems random (cold, hot).

Have no idea what the tube replacement would have to do with this. Perhaps there are other components that could be the likely culprit.

The temperature here right now is between 40 and 60 F.

Thank you!
